1st place
Sleepless in Brooklyn by stylo

jerseygurl: Congrats on 1st place Chris!!!

mirto56: I really like the entire scene, Sty. So moody with the lighting. Your manipulations, tweaking and additions are top-notch. Fantastico!

jerseygurl: This is a really cool image Chris!!! You did a great job taking the time exposure and dropping in the manip work really makes this shot special or should I say extraordinary!!! I love the bank architecture with the palladium windows - also the lit retail space on the left adds nicely to your shot as well. Excellent!!! A great entry for the contest!!!

2nd place
Death of a Square by 0930_23

casechaser: If I lived there too, we could call it "Our Town." I am sure Thornton Wilder would approve of your collage and just maybe he would also feel the sadness presented in our towns in decline.

Starglow: It's such a shame what is happening in our small towns. Very realistic, as our hometown is going the same way. Interesting collage.

Tootles: This was really interesting and I spent some time looking at it. Had a good laugh at myself too, as I was thinking "this could be anywhere in my own country," (just assuming it was overseas somewhere), then caught sight of the back of that white van and realized... it was! As though the title wasn't a big enough clue. :-)

Nice work, anyway -- good luck in the contest!
